Fig 1 — Selected images from the initial FDG PET/CT. Coronal FDG PET maximum intensity projection (MIP; A) demonstrates multifocal FDG avid foci including a right thyroid nodule (red arrow), multiple supraclavicular, mediastinal, hilar, and mesenteric lymph nodes (blue arrow), multifocal nodular cardiac uptake (green arrow), and multiple nodular soft tissue deposits in the intramuscular fascia and skin (yellow arrow). Transaxial FDG PET/CT (B) CT (C) and PET (D) images show a hypermetabolic nodule along the right thyroid gland which was a pathology proven to be sarcoidosis. Adjacent hypermetabolic right supraclavicular lymph node (blue arrow) was also noted and likely nodal sarcoid involvement. Transaxial FDG PET/CT (E) CT (F) and PET (G) images through the thorax demonstrate nodular intense FDG uptake along the cardiac intraventricular septum (green arrow) and a nodular focus of cutaneous uptake along the back (orange arrow) which was found to be inflamed seborrheic keratoses. Transaxial FDG PET/CT (H) CT (I) and PET (J) images through the legs demonstrate multinodular hypermetabolic focal (yellow arrow) along the intramuscular fascia and subcutaneous fat which is also likely related to the patient sarcoid.
